Kawhi Leonard Looked Like A Terrified Pledge Before He Shot Free Throws In Game 6 Against The Heat

This is Kawhi Leonard of the San Antonio Spurs right before he is about to take the first of two free throws against the Miami Heat in Game 6 of the NBA Finals. If he makes both, the Spurs surely win, the instant classic game and the NBA title. If he misses one of the shots, the Heat have a chance, albeit slim. He missed one. The first one. The one he shot just after making this face…

Of course the Heat went on to complete an incredible comeback. A comeback that is not by any means totally the fault of Kawhi Leonard. Still, look at him. He looks like a pledge walking into the fraternity house in mid-November, just as the soulless and perpetually angry fifth year senior lumbers down the stairs and finishes his last slug of a handle of cheap whiskey. This is the look of pure terror.
